On Thursday 7th August, I walked around Bethnal Green with Christopher Daniel, who organises Long Now London.We walked through East London, discussing architecture, philosophy, and the importance of long-term thinking. We explored the evolution of our own projects, especially Long Now London and Bryan's discussion group Through a Glass Darkly. We delved into broader themes like societal change, the impact of technology, and embodied experience versus conceptual abstraction. We wandered the streets, thinking about history, our own personal stories, and how to create meaningful and sustainable communities.The Bertrand Russell quote I butchered:“Work is of two kinds: first, altering the position of matter at or near the earth's surface relatively to other such matter; second, telling other people to do so. The first kind is unpleasant and ill paid; the second is pleasant and highly paid.”See some photos I took of East London over on SubstackMy piece on HeraclitusMy piece on Dependent ArisingJamie Stantonian on the Uffington White HorseAnab from Superflux whom Chris mentioned a few times.I wrongly called one of the Greek schools of medicine "Dogmatist" when I should have said "Rationalist"; Sextus opposes both dogmatism and rationalism. The three schools of medicine in 2nd century AD were "Empirical," "Rationalist," and "Methodist."

Today, Pastor Al Dagel compares the appointment of Joshua to lead the people of Israel to the appointment of Mathias to join the eleven remaining followers of Jesus, now known as the Apostles.  

Today, Pastor Al Dagel brings Luke's continuing account of Jesus' life and ministry to the forefront, introducing us to the Book of Acts.

Segment 1: • Methodist preacher goes viral for endorsing divorce in the name of “authentic self.” • This message twists God's Word and moves the goalposts on covenant. • Jesus gave narrow reasons for divorce—yet culture demands limitless excuses. Segment 2: • The preacher doubles down—arguing against God's design for marriage. • His message: don't stay in marriages that “aren't working.” • Marriage pictures Christ and His Church—God is not pleased with false preaching. Segment 3: • Thousands claimed “saved,” but the gospel wasn't preached. • A watered-down message reflects seeker-sensitive culture. • The stakes are eternal—souls are lost when the full gospel is missing. Segment 4: • China unveils the first pregnancy humanoid—praised by many. • Pragmatic arguments ignore reality: robots aren't image-bearers of God. • With AI poised to replace jobs, what happens to human purpose and economics? ___ Thanks for listening!

In this week's episode of Your Week with St. Luke's, Pastor Jenn explores the call to be Change Makers by lifting our voices for justice through two powerful scriptures: Proverbs 31:8–9 and Micah 6:8. Together, these passages challenge us to move beyond private faith into public action—speaking up for the voiceless, practicing mercy, and walking humbly with God. With insights from wisdom literature, prophetic voices, and Methodist tradition, this episode invites us to see justice not as an abstract idea but as love made visible in the world.

John Wesley grew the Methodist movement by following a simple format that incorporated field preaching, small accountability groups, empowering leaders and serving his community. In “Calling on Fire: Reclaiming the Method of Methodism,” co-author Rev. Dr. Chris Heckert challenges United Methodists to reclaim Wesley's practices that empowered everyday disciples—not just clergy—to lead, serve, and grow … Continue reading "‘Calling on Fire': Reclaiming Wesley's method to renew the church"

Prayer SeriesIn this episode, Scott shares his personal faith journey—from growing up Methodist to fully embracing the Catholic faith. He reflects on the questions, struggles, and moments of clarity that led him deeper into the Church. One of the most powerful parts of the episode is when Scott describes a profound experience he had during Mass—an unexpected moment that brought everything together and affirmed his path. It's a heartfelt and honest conversation about prayer, conversion, and the quiet ways God moves in our lives. Iowa Catholic Radio Network Shows:Be Not Afraid with Fr.

Send us a textIn part four of our Love Thy Neighbor series, we explore the bold witness of Phineas Bresee, before he ever founded the Church of the Nazarene. As a young Methodist pastor in the tense years before the Civil War, Bresee stood in a pulpit draped with the American flag and called slavery what it was: sin. To him, it wasn't about politics, it was about the gospel.This sermon challenges us to see that God's holiness is not passive. It names sin, confronts injustice, and calls us to live with integrity and compassion. From ancient laws in Leviticus to modern struggles like human trafficking, economic injustice, and exploitation, we discover that holiness isn't about staying "clean" by avoiding messy situations, it is about stepping into them with redemptive love.Join us as we ask: Where is God calling us today to stand for the vulnerable, confront systems of sin, and reflect the radical love of Jesus?Other Episodes in this series:Leftover & Left BehindHonesty & HospitalityLove & LoyaltySin & Slavery Foreign & FriendLinkoln shares his story on why he started coming to Ravenna Church of the Nazarene and shares why you should consider doing the same.Ravenna Church of the Nazarene530 Main Street, Ravenna, KY 40472Support the showThe Dirt Path Sermon Podcast is a place for real sermons that speak to real life.

As we continue in our series "Three Simple Rules," we examine Wesley's call to the early Methodists to "Do No Harm." We may not always know the right thing to say, but we generally know what not to do. Sometimes the first step of healing is to avoid doing harm.

DateAugust 10, 2025SynopsisIn this sermon, we wrestle with that universal ache of unfinished business—from summer bucket lists to life's deeper longings. Drawing from personal experience and the ancient wisdom of Hebrews 11, we discover something liberating: faith isn't about checking off every box, but about trusting God in the midst of our incompleteness. Through the story of Abraham and Sarah, we learn that the divine often shows up not in our achievements, but in life's ordinary, unpolished moments—transforming our "undone" into holy ground where grace and humanity meet.

Elsa - My mother who has dementia was hospitalized with pneumonia. Priest came to visit and gave the Eucharist. mom is non-verbal. When the priest came to anoint her, she became aware. Priest gave her the Eucharist and she began to cry. She knew Jesus was present. Such a blessing. (22:19) Break 1 Patrick – explains the Real Presence Association and how it connects with Eucharistic Miracles. (34:29) Sharon - Is there actually a procedure to follow when the Eucharist falls out of the hands of the priest and onto the floor? What is actually supposed to be done? (40:34) Break 2 Julie - My brother is a Methodist minister. I have brought to him these miracles and he says Jesus can do anything. Looking for a response to him. How do I respond to this?

The lesson explored the enduring legacy of Carl Boberg's poem "O Store Gud!. The hymn, "How Great Thou Art," has its origins in this Swedish poem inspired by a thunderstorm. It subsequently was translated and adapted into a globally recognized worship song. Examining the history of the hymn, the speaker addressed the controversy surrounding its inclusion in Methodist hymnals, highlighting the tension between devotional expression and confessional theology. Ultimately, the message emphasized the power of biblical truth and how it leads to personal devotion to God. Listeners are encouraged to find poetic and devotional ways to express their love and appreciation for the God that saves us. A great God understood through great theology should lead to great ways of worshipping the Lord. Poems and music are gifts of God to image God and enjoy God—who is the Poet of poets.

In Two Truths and a Lie, Amanda confesses to two criminal acts—leaving one unclaimed. Has she ever: Publicly urinated? Called a cop a pussy? Or had an attractive mugshot? Trevin takes a turn with Barbie-themed trivia, inspired by the movie. Is it true that: Barbie's yellow lab Tiffany was discontinued after tragedy? Barbie was based on a pornographic doll? Barbie once came with a diet book titled Don't Eat? Then, for story time:

Segment 1: • The Methodist church (and now PCUSA) shows what happens when you abandon Sola Scriptura. • Liberation Theology and LGBT compromise start with bad hermeneutics. • “Herman Who?” (soon free) will help you see why hermeneutics matters for staying faithful. Segment 2: • Not all modern worship is shallow—some songs (like Matt Papa/Boswell) get it right. • Most contemporary worship, though, remains me-centered and theologically thin. • Discernment in music shapes your view of God and worship. Segment 3: • Young people are leaving church for reasons deeper than they realize: they think faith is shallow, anti-science, and overprotective. • PLAY THE MAN cards equip young men for real spiritual battle. • Culture says “follow your desires,” but God's design offers something far better. Segment 4: • God's laws aren't restrictive; they're good for you and guard your joy. • Many reject Jesus without knowing the real Jesus they're rejecting. • Joe Rogan's conversations hint at the hunger for truth that only Christ satisfies. ___ Thanks for listening!
